Description Alexandre Monobe 2016-01-14 18:08:35 UTC
On LibreOffice, the dot on the numeric pad, shows a comma instead of a dot. The dot on the alphabetic section works fine tough. 

I'm using a ABNT keyboard model for Portuguese language.

It seems this issue came with our OpenOffice Base. So it should affect all LibreOffice versions.


The issue is that you only can replicate the issue with a ABNT keyboard.


BTW, all other programs receive the input right. Only LibreOffice gets the dot (.) input and print a comma (,) on screen.

See that this issue is present in OpenOffice since 2008 at least:

Confirmed. This configuration works.

But it's counterintuitive cause you need to uncheck the option "Same as locale setting" which comes checked by default.

And yes my default locale is set right (pt_BR.UTF-8)


Without this option checked everything works great. Thanks!
